Description

Weather here has been horrendous for months, so opportunities for deep sky imaging have been virtually non-existent. I have, however, been able to plop my 10" dob out from time to time, which is what I took this sun pic through.

With the upcoming Mercury transit, and 2017's eclipse, I purchased a solar filter to use with my dob. This pic was taken afocally with an iPhone 5s camera, through a 10mm Ethos w/a 1.5x Vernonscope barlow. A bit of cropping and processing was done in Nebulosity and Photoshop.
